Book excerpt: Since 2001, the federal government has authorized over $5 billion in grant awards to local fire departments for the improvement of public safety capabilities. These federal grant funds have provided departments with equipment, apparatus and training which they would have otherwise been unable to afford. However, neither the federal government nor grant recipients have been able to identify a method to quantify positive outcomes from grant awards. The need to evaluate the efficacy of this grant program and revise programmatic guidance and policies to maximize award effects has been noted by both the administering agency and independent reviewers. Using a national fire incident database (NFIRS), this paper uses regression techniques to examine whether receiving an Assistance to Firefighter's Grant impacts the rate of three common injury types: burns, injuries due to vehicle accidents, and cardiac events. Multivariate regression indicates significant effect on cardiac and burn injury rates in the year after grant receipt; however, this effect is diminished in subsequent years. An analysis of grant effect on injuries due to vehicle accidents implied that training and experience may have a more significant impact than grant receipt.

This book was released on 2009-11-01 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Brookings Institution Press and the National Academy of Public Administration publication America's complex system of multi-layered government faces new challenges as a result of rapidly changing economic, technological, and demographic trends. An aging population, economic globalization, and homeland security concerns are among the powerful factors testing the system's capacity and flexibility. Major policy challenges and responses are now overwhelmingly intergovernmental in nature, and as a result, the fortunes of all levels of government are more intertwined and interdependent than ever before. This volume, cosponsored by the National Academy of Public Administration (NAPA), defines an agenda for improving the performance of America's intergovernmental system. The early chapters present the current state of practice in intergovernmental relations, including discussion of trends toward centralization, devolution, and other power-sharing arrangements. The fiscal underpinnings of the system are analyzed, along with the long-term implications of current trends in financing at all levels. The authors identify the principal tools used to define intergovernmental management–grants, mandates, preemptions—in discussing emerging models and best practices in the design and management of those tools. In tergovernmental Management for the 21st Century applies these crosscutting themes to critical policy areas where intergovernmental management and cooperation are essential, such as homeland security, education, welfare, health care, and the environment. It concludes with an authoritative assessment of the system's capacity to govern, oversee, and improve.
